    Friday Crop Report on a Thursday!

    Well, the weather looked a little promising yesterday but today it looks like a wet warmer shit show.

    So we wait and are stuck at 28% left.

    It gets you down, it makes you wonder why we do the shit we do. What pisses me off the most is it is running insanely well for the year. So we would have had two back to back great crops in a row. Compared to the 15 or 16 that were flooded out crap before. But one step forwards two steps back.

    It is farming in Canada and besides the gov the biggest thing to screw a farm is the weather.

    So we continue to dry grain. Our wheat that is harvested has a decent falling number not massive but in the right area so that is a good thing and it will be all dried soon.

    Canola what is off is grading ok with one variety having a bit more green. But again it was a dud from spring till fall.

    The Early buy for anhydrous came around last week. Price was better than last year but desire to purchase was gone. The Early S15 buy price that came out in September is still at the same price today. So with the shit show in the USA for harvest and Canada and Eastern Canada are prices going to be sideways till spring. I'm thinking so.

    Watch your milling feed wheat contracts that are at $5 or better. Read them they might have stuck in a clause for falling numbers and when you haul your 5 is now 4.50 same as feed all over.

    Games are going on all over the place and so is shit going sideways with the grain. Sit in an elevator grading room for an hour on a busy day and watch how many are sent home.

    Now our idiot in Ottawa who is the most useless piece of skin on the planet proves again he has no clue. Farmers are drying grain that he has imposed a huge carbon tax on. We can't sell the grain unless it is dried. So like oil will farmers just give up and soon AG will die like oil. But the east is so smart they will carry on till all the money is gone. Liberals you got to love how stupid they really are. VIVA QUEBEC. ITs all about building a new country off the back of Canada. **** YOU>

    To those who get some warm weather and can actually harvest some. Way to go. We went and checked every field and unless it gets to plus 15 for four days or more the 6 in of snow on the crops won't go. Miracles do happen but I think Flight south will instead.

    Were sitting 21 days Saturday. Plus lots of -21 nights.

    Million left in the field just sucks. Farming more than ever.

    Be safe and please talk to your neighbours as some are having a real hard time with this and the stored crop they have harvested.

    Some photos from the week. Each field and area are different. Plus some odd crop stands nice the next field a mile down covered in snow.

          2 billion crops left in the field and not a peep.

          How much harvested will rot?

          That should tell you how important ag is in shit hole canada.

            Fog isn’t going to melt shit all and Drew’s forecast just out. Not warm and fuzzy. Time to say it’s done and put all the shit away.

                  Every day it gets colder I get more upset at the carbon tax. Everything you need to survive in western canada requires energy and lots of it. Solar doesn’t dry grain or thaw pipes or ground out to burry cables. Heat for vehicle etc.

                    Those are some pretty shitty numbers...

                    The Sugarbeet number blows my mind. Neighbors son in law works at the Rogers plant in Taber. They are telling them they expect to be done processing this years crop by january rather than march, so they might as well start looking for jobs now.

                      -15 a month ago got right into the root in the ground. Starts rotting right away.
                      Whatever is piled is on borrowed time.
                      The way I heard it anyway.

                        Does anyone have stats on % of crop that was harvested tough and damp? Or keeping track of how much is going out of condition in bins. Need weekly reports on these issues so farmers can get better eye on where markets might go.

                            Those might be some of the issues and information that the commissions could have been mandated with getting back to producers that pay them. Would anyone ever bring that up at AGM as a resolution or no interest?

                              Farmers young and old better soon wake up and realize were the bottom feeders and need to push like the pigs above us do. We have to tell our representatives enough is enough and the status quo of not hurting skippys feelings is done. It's like Ryan Miley saying moe is wrong pushing Trudeau. What would Ryan accomplish kissing Skippy's ass? Nothing he would shit on that weak fool.
